[Tutor] Which is safer and easier to code, raw_input or int(raw_input))?

[Nathan Pinno]

  Luke and all,

  Anyone interested in helping me code that MasterMind-like game? I sure could use the help. 

  Right now I'm taking time to write a program that will automatically show various combos (eg a0 and x3) so that I can figure out all the various combos, so that I don't miss any.

    tmp = raw_input("hello, enter a number: ")
    try:
        tmp = int(tmp)
    except ValueError:
        print "sorry that wasn't a number"

      Hi all,

      The subject line says it all. What's the answer?

      Let's let everyone talk about this.
